ABC Stuff: GL Stuff
http://howethoughtsabcstuff.blogspot.com/2010/05/gl-stuff_09.html
Sunday, May 9, 2010. In general I try not to spend too much money on these projects and instead opt for stuff that's generally already in my craft supply, but there were just so many fun GL things at the craft store, that I bought everything. These were a big hit. What's more fun than shiny adhesive? This craft involved putting different colors of plastic beads into the frame and then melting them in the oven. Not actual stained glass, but I counted it. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). SK or SC Stuff.

ABC Stuff: E Stuff
http://howethoughtsabcstuff.blogspot.com/2009/04/e-stuff.html
Sunday, April 5, 2009. At the end of the week, I'm not sure we have the short E sound, largely because Talmage refers to elephants as uh-fa-lents, so when he remembered that that was the word I was sounding out, E made the sound uh-uh-uh. Is a fantastic book for short E sounds, largely because Elmo refers to himself exclusively in the third person. Other short E sound books were hard to come by, but. What the Elephant Told. By Barbara Brenner and. Ella the Elegant Elephant. I've been trying to think of h...

ABC Stuff: F Stuff
http://howethoughtsabcstuff.blogspot.com/2009/04/f-stuff_14.html
Tuesday, April 14, 2009. Now that I'm a year into this project and I'm doing phoenetic sounds like FR and FL, I realized that I did F all wrong. Frame, frog, and flag belong in a later week. Remember this next time. I found great F books. By Jane O'Conner and. By Dr Seuss were perfect. By Kara LaReau was excellent for Fs, but the plot line (where a fish doesn't want to share his tank, so he eats all the peppy fish who are put in there with him) was a bit alarming for a toddler. Talmage's review? I stole ...

ABC Stuff: FR Stuff
http://howethoughtsabcstuff.blogspot.com/2010/05/fr-stuff.html
Sunday, May 9, 2010. Most of the books we used had "friend" in the title. This is also a repeat from F week. Tal was a little more rushed with this years frame. But he was excited about what happens when red and green mix. I thought the frame set off Tyler's mountain picture nicely. This is a Sierpinski Triangle. It is a fractal. I ran out of time this week, but the frog we did during F week would have fit nicely here. Treasure hunt: fractal, frame, freezer, fruit, frog. The treasure was fruit snacks.

ABC Stuff: H Stuff
http://howethoughtsabcstuff.blogspot.com/2009/04/h-stuff_27.html
Monday, April 27, 2009. H week was pretty fun. I randomly had a lot of ideas for this week, which made it fun. Books were actually kind of tricky. These are the best we found:. The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear. By Don and Audrey Wood,. By Julia Durango, and. Is the template for the head (to be glued on the flap) and here. Is the template for the body (to be glued on the bag part, just under the flap). Hat (the newspaper variety). Are the instructions I followed. Orig...

ABC Stuff: PL Stuff
http://howethoughtsabcstuff.blogspot.com/2010/05/pl-stuff.html
Sunday, May 9, 2010. By Elise Primavera was kind of a weird book, but it was great when we made plantpets. We took a piece of black paper and made stars with a toothbrush and watered down white tempera paint. Then I took this idea from Ehow. I thought it turned out pretty cute. We went to the Clark Planetarium. Plane, planets, plates, pluto. The treasure was Good and Plenty. I was certain he wouldn't like it. I was wrong. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

ABC Stuff: A Stuff
http://howethoughtsabcstuff.blogspot.com/2009/04/week.html
Wednesday, April 1, 2009. Vowels are tricky. What sound do they make? If I remember from my college linguistics class, mostly the schwa sound, and very rarely the short A sound. But we focused on the short a sound anyway. This made finding books to find the sound kind of tricky, and I don't have any that stand out as exceptional. Ants on a log. The classic. Celery, peanut butter, raisins. Talmage decided he didn't like celery, and I subsequently ate all the logs of ants. May 24, 2010 at 1:49 PM. Books an...

ABC Stuff: SK or SC Stuff
http://howethoughtsabcstuff.blogspot.com/2010/05/sk-or-sc-stuff.html
Sunday, May 9, 2010. SK or SC Stuff. Books by Melanie Watt are great SC books! When I do this with Asher, I plan to coordinate my books a little better with the activity for the day, finding a book that has the same topic as the project. Look for that circa 2012. When I finally get around to that, I'm definitely going to read The Rainbow Fish. By Marcus Pfister with this project. We made this scaly fish. So when I suggested we make a scarecrow, Tal was certainly excited. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

ABC Stuff: FL Stuff
http://howethoughtsabcstuff.blogspot.com/2010/05/fl-stuff.html
Sunday, May 9, 2010. There weren't any books that really stuck out for me, but I did discover that books with "flower" in the title are pretty girly. I cut apart a cardboard (Cardboard? We made suncatchers (imitation stained glass with plastic frames and glass stain). Here. Is a website that sells something like what we did. Here is Project Flag 2009:. Note the random number of stripes and haphazard arrangement of stars. Here is Project Flag 2010:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Real Howe Blog.
